Summer 04 Golden Summer | Summer Film Preset for Lightroom Mobile & Desktop

H4 is for outdoor and travel photographers whose primary shooting conditions are golden hour and warm afternoon light — and who want a preset that enhances the specific golden quality of that light rather than simply adding warmth.

For content creators whose aesthetic is warm, golden, and vibrant — lifestyle photographers, travel bloggers, and creators whose summer content has a consistently sun-soaked character.

The golden quality is dimensional. H4's warmth is in the golden range specifically — highlights are golden, midtones are warm, the result references late afternoon light rather than a warm filter.

It is at its best in the best light. H4 and golden hour work together — the preset enhances the existing quality rather than compensating for difficult conditions.

Maximum warmth, controlled quality. H4 is the warmest preset in the collection but the polychrome calibration keeps it from going orange.

This preset captures the muted, hazy aesthetic and refined sandy tones similar to the iconic H4 filters. It’s the perfect professional alternative for those wanting a desaturated, analog-inspired look that feels organic and timeless. By emulating the "pushed" development of film in bright, harsh lighting, the H4 ensures your digital shots have a polished, matte finish that stands out on both desktop and mobile.

H4 works best in warm light conditions — golden hour, late afternoon, warm beach and coastal environments. In flat or cool light, the golden warmth can feel mismatched.

White balance: 5,200-5,600K, Tint +5. Preserve the warm ambient. Preset strength: 82-85%. On phone photos: 78-80%.

What is the difference between H4 and H1? H1 is the clean warm baseline — versatile and restrained. H4 is the warmest and most golden preset in the collection — specifically calibrated for golden hour and maximum warmth. H1 for everyday versatility, H4 for peak golden hour conditions.

Does H4 work for beach photography? Yes — H4 is specifically well-suited to beach and coastal photography in warm light. The golden tones suit sand, warm skin, and coastal sunset light directly.
